Poppers! Everyone will love the crispy breaded outside and cheesy
mozzarella inside. The cherry pepper gives it

Ingredients

Preparation
Drain and dry the pickled cherry peppers, then cut off the tops and
use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds. Place a mozzarella ball inside of
each one.
Make the chicken mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground
chicken, egg, Parmesan, milk, bread crumbs, onion, parsley, garlic
powder, pepper, and salt. Mix well.
Take a golf ball-size amount of the chicken mixture and pat it out
flat in your palm. Place a stuffed cherry pepper in the center and wrap
the chicken mixture around it until completely covered, rolling into a
ball. Repeat with the remaining cherry peppers.
Chill for 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
Prepare for frying: Add the bread crumbs to a medium bowl with the
Parmesan, dried parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Beat the eggs in a
separate medium bowl. Add the flour to another medium bowl.
Toss a chicken meatball in the flour, then coat in the eggs, then roll in the bread crumbs. Repeat with remaining meatballs.
Heat a large pan with ¼ inch (6 ml) of canola oil over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 400°F (200˚C).
Working in batches, fry the chicken meatballs for 1-2 minutes on
each side, or until light golden brown. Once finished, blot dry with
paper towels and transfer to a greased baking sheet.
Dollop 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce on each ball, then top with a piece of mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 8 minutes, or until meatballs are cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (75˚C).
Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
